He’s the boy who wants to disappear.
One mistake and seventeen-year-old Shake LeCasse lost everything. Now there’s no going back and no way to move forward. The once-popular Varsity hockey captain is living in the basement of a grandmother he barely knows, ditching school, avoiding friends and working hard on self-destruction.
She’s the girl nobody sees.
Cleo Lee survives however she can. Lie, cheat, steal, whatever it takes, and saving Mr. Popular isn’t part of the plan. Telling him the truth about the night that destroyed his life is downright dangerous. She needs to keep quiet, be smart and let the guy she’s been half in love with since middle school throw away a future she’d do anything to have. Too bad she sucks at playing it safe.
Enjoy an Excerpt
It’s the end of the world as we know it:
Since I’m about as lucky as Friday the thirteenth, the bell rings as we walk to my locker. The hall floods with shocked bystanders. Teenagers freeze in their tracks and clutch at their hearts. The female population drops to their collective knees and weeps. Might as well wear sealskin boots to a PETA convention. Sing Marilyn Manson in church. Grab a piece of the flag for toilet paper. When Cleo Lee and Shake LeCasse hold hands, it’s the end of the world as we know it. Any second, locusts will fall from the sky, mountains will crumble to dust, the devil will need a wool coat, and wolves will mate with bunnies.
It’s not enough for Shake.
Oh no. The crazy idiot puts on a performance. With all eyes on us, he traps me at my locker, braces his hands on either side and leans over me. He treats me to his legendary grin. He actually finds this amusing. I’m trying hard not to pee myself and consider pinching his nipple, just to wipe the smirk off his face.
“Why?” I beg, poised to run.
“You’re not a secret, Cleo. You’re mine.”
Pittypat goes my heart. Then the universe shifts, because Shakespeare LeCasse dips his blonde curly head and pulls me into his orbit.
